Obama tapes Jay Leno last show video

President Barack Obama lent his hand to a star-studded tribute to former “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno on his final show Thursday night, joking about all the zingers Leno has landed on him over the years.

The president appeared in a taped video message sandwiched between sportscaster Bob Costas and liberal comic Bill Maher, as celebrities gave Leno advice on what to do in his retirement.

“Jay, you’ve made a whole lot of jokes about me over the years, but do not worry: I’m not upset,” Obama deadpanned. “On a totally unrelated note, I’ve decided to make you my new ambassador to Antarctica. Hope you got a warm coat, funny man.”
